Answer:

P(You\ n\ Anna\ n\ Kevin) = \frac{1}{4913}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Total\ Employees = 17

To\ Select = 3

Required

Determine the probability of selecting You, Anna and Kevin

Assuming the selection process is fair;

Each employee has a probability of;

Probability = \frac{1}{17}

So:

P(You\ n\ Anna\ n\ Kevin) = P(You) * P(Anna) * P(Kevin)

P(You\ n\ Anna\ n\ Kevin) = \frac{1}{17} * \frac{1}{17} * \frac{1}{17}

P(You\ n\ Anna\ n\ Kevin) = \frac{1}{4913}

Suppose that a company's sales were $1,000,000 6 years ago and are $9,000,000 at the end of the 6 years. Find the geometric mean
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

The geometric mean growth rate of sales is 1.4422.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have two sales values, one from 6 years ago and the other from now.

We have to calculate the geometric growth rate of sales.

We have:

y(-6)=1,000,000\\\\y(0)=9,000,000

We can write the relation between these two values as:

y(0)=y(-6)k^{0-(-6)}\\\\9,000,000=1,000,000k^6\\\\k^6=9\\\\k=9^{1/6}= 1.4422

The geometric mean growth rate of sales is 1.4422.

kogti [31]

Answer:

Rs.64

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Amount of oranges:</u>

  • 150 kg

<u>Oranges sold:</u>

  • 150 - 18 = 132 kg

<u>Money made:</u>

  • 132* 80 = Rs. 10560

<u>Selling price of 150 kg:</u>

  • 10560/150 = Rs. 70.4

<u>Cost price:</u>

  • x+10% = 70.4
  • x*1.1= 70.4
  • x= 70.4/1.1
  • x= Rs.64
  • Cost price of oranges= Rs. 64

The radius of circle G is 4 cm. What is the tangent
qaws [65]
The tangent of a given circle is perpendicular to the radius a the point called point if tangency. The radius of the circle is perpendicular to the tangent at the point of tangency. This property is especially useful in cases where the radius that connects to the point of tangency forms a part of right angle because the pythagorean theorem and trigonometry apply to right angles.
